Oregon Trip

Last weekend my mom and I went to Oregon (Southern Oregon) for the weekend to visit family. We mainly went to visit my grandmother - the last of my living grandparents - who has Alzheimer's and is starting to get a bit worse. It's sort of a one-sided conversation these days, but she was very excited to see the baby. It was good to see her.


I also learned something very important on this trip: no more road trips with the baby! Seriously. A usually calm 6 hour trip turned into a 9 hour ordeal. And did I mention she would NOT nurse the entire trip? Total Scorpio, that one.


We are SO flying to Disneyland next month.


Pictures below!


A tired mama and baby



My cousin Jen's art studio. LOVE her stuff!

Aunt Cathy and the cutie.

My cousin Shaula, practicing her momma skills. We're only 5 years apart, but we've never really gotten to know each other. We got some good quality time this trip. She's awesome. :)


My momma & her sisters. Take a good look, people. That's me in 20 years!


Grandma playing with Lumpkin. I didn't realize until I looked at these pictures how old she's gotten.


Four generations! What a cool shot...
